Finally!!!!

Today is a monumental day. Every day for the last 9 months, Isaiah has taken his TB medicine. Since he can't swallow a pill and they don't make them chewable for children, it has been a real hassle.
First, I had to cut the pill in half and then crush it is this pill crusher.
Then, I had to mix it in some food. Usually I used yogurt or pudding.
It tastes awful so hiding it was really important!
It was so important that we not miss days, because then we would have to start it all over again. I was not at all thrilled about that idea.
Isaiah taking his medicine for the last time!!
"See, it is all gone!"
Completing this medicine means that Isaiah is cured of TB. He does not have to worry about every having active TB. That is a huge blessing!! I am so thankful to close this chapter in our story.

Congratulations, Isaiah, you did it!!

  1. Joseph had a medicine he had to take for about a year and I did that same thing. It was SUCH an ordeal. I am so glad he is done, you are done, and any concerns about TB are DONE. :)
